    And off goes the TV - this has been without a doubt among the worst playoff games I've seen in my 20 years of watching the Rockets. This game has encapsulated everything that's wrong with this team - Harden's unwillingness to play hard when things get tough chief among them. He may have carried this team in the regular season, but he just doesn't have the extra gear to dominate in the playoffs.

    And while I clearly have to eat crow about Howard's athleticism (I was pretty adamant that it was gone for good - WRONG), he still can't carry a team on the offensive end. That means our first two options aren't going to consistently get us baskets in the big games. That's a huge problem.

    Harden wants to shoot when there is absolutely no pressure on the Rockets.
    Where was this 6 minutes ago when we were only down 5?

    Why do players complain when they know they fouled and its completely obvious? I don't get it.

    After we lost the first 2 games at home in 1994 in the WCSF, you learn that you never, ever give up on your team. Ever.
